Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Wijnegem

The drive from Brussels Airport to Wijnegem

The transfer covers 49 km (31 miles) and usually takes about 37 minutes. The route leads north-east from Zaventem toward the Antwerp area, mostly on motorway. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours around the Brussels ring and the Antwerp approaches can add time, so allow a buffer if you have a tight connection or an appointment. This route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request like any other.

Which vehicle suits your group

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simple choice: one option seats up to 3 passengers and another up to 4. Larger groups can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. If you travel with a lot of luggage, choose the next size up so everyone rides comfortably. Business teams, wedding parties and tour groups often find the larger minibuses easier than splitting into several cars.

Wijnegem as a destination

Wijnegem is a municipality in the province of Antwerp, just east of the city of Antwerp. It is best known for the Wijnegem Shopping Center, and it is a quiet, mostly residential place with quick road links to Antwerp and the surrounding towns. That makes it a practical base for business visits as well as for trips into the city.

Places to stay near Wijnegem
